Description
Construction of the bridge over the River Calder in 1907. The bridge opened in 1908 and appeared in the Engineering and Building Journal, as one of first pre-cast concrete bridges to be built in this country, as opposed to pre-stressed or re-enforced concrete. The original bridge was extensively repaired around 1960 and replaced in the 1990s. Then another one was built as part of the Flood Prevention Scheme, following the devastating floods of Boxing Day 2015.
